Summary Description

This document aims to promote and strengthen the operation of supervisory colleges.

Detailed Description The document Good Practice Principles on Supervisory Colleges supplements broader guidance issued by the Basel Committee on cross-border cooperation and information-sharing by outlining expectations for both home and host supervisors in relation to college objectives, governance, communication and information, as well as potential areas for collaborative work. Following a principle-based approach, the good practice principles are designed to allow adequate flexibility in the way that they are implemented for a wide range of banks across different jurisdictions. They are not intended to represent a definitive or exhaustive set of guidance regarding college functioning.
